1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Moyamoya disease (MMD) is a chronic cerebrovascular disease that frequently results in intracranial ischemia or hemorrhage. Its concurrence with varying ophthalmic findings is relatively rare yet may lead to irreversible blindness. We performed a search and review of the literature to characterize the relevance of MMD (excluding moyamoya syndrome) and ophthalmic findings. As a result, a total of 38 articles identified from PubMed and Web of Science were included in this mini-review. Patients with MMD sometimes present with decreased visual acuity or visual field defects before the onset of symptomatic cerebrovascular dysfunction. The most predominant ophthalmic condition in MMD patients is the morning glory disc anomaly (MGDA). Deficiency during neuroectodermal genesis and subsequent mesodermal changes may be responsible for the association between these two diseases. Thus, it may be beneficial for patients with MGDA to receive cerebral vascular examinations as the precaution against life-threatening intracranial angiopathy. Other ophthalmic findings reported in cases of MMD include retinal vascular occlusion, optic disc pallor, cortical blindness, etc. For most of the patients with MMD, retinal examinations would be recommended to prevent potential loss of vision. It is essential for both neurologists and ophthalmologists to be aware of the correlation between cerebrovascular diseases such as MMD and ocular manifestations to achieve a comprehensive diagnosis.
